Break through the diffraction limitThe MetaMorph Super-Resolution Software advances imaging by enabling a 10-fold improvement in resolution.

Our MetaMorph Microscopy and Imaging Software provides a

means to control experimental hardware, capture images, perform

localization calculations, and display the developing super-resolution

image in real time.

Our companyOur innovative analytical solutions for cell and protein biology enable our customers to see more, do more, know more, and to answer life’s most important questions.

Abbe’s limit

The resolution of widefield optical microscopy is limited by the diffraction of light

according to the relationship discovered by Ernst Abbe. Object details smaller than

200 nm are not readily discernible by conventional light microscopy, posing a limit

for studying many biological problems at the cellular level.

Super-resolution image

A random, sparse subset of fluorescent molecules are captured and localized

while the rest of the molecules in the sample are temporarily non fluorescent.

Then, the current group of fluorescent molecules are turned non fluorescent and a

new pool of molecules are turned fluorescent.

Repeating this process a large number of times and pooling the localizations

together allows reconstruction of super-resolution image from the individual

molecule’s coordinates.

Optimized workflow

Real-time localizations, saving, & feedbackReal-time capabilities allow reconstruction and visualization of the super-resolution image during the acquisition. With real-time feedback, the system can automatically adjust activation laser power to compensate for a changing density of localizations while acquiring images.

The number of localizations per image and laser power with real-time adjustments. When the number of localizations is outside a baseline, the laser power automatically changes to increase or decrease the density of localizations.

Acquisition workflow for acquiring, analyzing and saving images. When your image acquisition completes, the localization analysis and storage is also complete.

Integrates with your protocols and systemMicroscopy techniques

Common localization microcopy techniques using photo-switchable, photo-activatable, photo-convertible proteins, or

standard fluorescent dyes are all supported.

Hardware supported

The MetaMorph Super-Resolution Software works

with many commercially available microscopes,

laser launches, TIRF optics, and can be enabled on

previously-installed imaging systems compatible with

MetaMorph Microscopy and Imaging Software.

Calculate diffusion coefficients to analyze motionSingle molecule trackingIn addition to being able to resolve small details

in super-resolution images, you can also track

and calculate dynamics of single molecules.

After localizing all the fluorescent molecules from

the image stack, single-molecule trajectories

are computed. Mean squared distance (MSD)

and diffusion coefficient (D) are calculated for

each trajectory.

3D super-resolutionAdding an optional cylindrical lens to the emission path of the microscope allows the software to precisely compute the axial position of the localized molecules. Localizations in the images are analyzed for the amount of asymmetry.
